that is exactly what i envisioned, you simply are not moving enough air through your rad. get rid of that fan. its for teenagers from the 80's to put on their camaro for bling.

buy one of these used and install it, you will thank me later.
93-96 lincoln mark VIII fan and shroud assembly make sure you get about 8 inches of harness with the plug.



you are comparing your close to stock motor to Byrons, which had twin turbo's and was a beast, i do love it. but you are doing modifications that will not fix the fact you have no
air going through your radiator to cool it

Thanks....If I go to a used electrical fan that mark VIII fan is tops from everything that I have read. As far as a new fan, it seems like a SPAL would be a good choice.
